  2. Autophagy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagy

    Autophagy degrades damaged organelles, cell membranes and proteins, and insufficient autophagy is thought to be one of the main reasons for the accumulation of damaged cells and aging. [87] Autophagy and autophagy regulators are involved in response to lysosomal damage, often directed by galectins such as galectin-3 and galectin-8 .

  3. Programmed cell death - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmed_cell_death

    Programmed cell death (PCD; sometimes referred to as cellular suicide [1]) is the death of a cell as a result of events inside of a cell, such as apoptosis or autophagy. [2] [3] PCD is carried out in a biological process, which usually confers advantage during an organism's lifecycle.

  4. Chemical process of decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_process_of...

    Decomposition in animals is a process that begins immediately after death and involves the destruction of soft tissue, leaving behind skeletonized remains. The chemical process of decomposition is complex and involves the breakdown of soft tissue, as the body passes through the sequential stages of decomposition. [2]

  5. Chaperone-mediated autophagy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaperone-mediated_autophagy

    Specific selection of proteins for degradation in all forms of autophagy came to further understanding as studies discovered the role of chaperones like hsc70. Although hsc70 targets cytosolic protein to CMA based on specific amino acid sequence recognition, it works differently when targeting proteins to macro or microautophagy.

  6. Autolysis (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autolysis_(biology)

    In the making of fermented beverages, autolysis can occur when the must or wort is left on the lees for a long time. In beer brewing, autolysis causes undesired off-flavors. Autolysis in winemaking is often undesirable, but in the case of the best Champagnes it is a vital component in creating flavor and mouth feel. [7]

  7. Stages of human death - Wikipedia

    In dogs: what changes and when. Eye K+ decreases from 1.5 hours after death to 7 hours after death. [32] Rigor mortis of hindlimbs persists up to 24 hours. [33] Elbow rigidity is lost after 3 to 7 days. [34] Technique: Tissue autolysis (tissue autolysis stage occurs at different times since death depending on species) Autolysis in livers

  8. Miller's Anatomy of the Dog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller's_Anatomy_of_the_Dog

    Miller died in 1960, and the first edition of The Anatomy of the Dog was published posthumously in 1964, [1] with George C. Christensen and Howard E. Evans as co-authors. [2] Evans and Christensen also co-authored the second edition, published in 1979, retitled as Miller's Anatomy of the Dog . [ 3 ]

  9. Autophagy protein 5 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagy_protein_5

    Autophagy protein 5 (ATG5) is a protein that, in humans, is encoded by the ATG5 gene located on chromosome 6. It is an E3 ubi autophagic cell death. ATG5 is a key protein involved in the extension of the phagophoric membrane in autophagic vesicles. It is activated by ATG7 and forms a complex with ATG12 and ATG16L1.
